After being battered by storms Monday night, the Chicago area is under a flood watch and more rain is expected through Tuesday evening, the National Weather Service said.<\/p>\n

The area saw several storms develop Monday resulting in heavy rain centered on the North Side of the city, weather service meteorologist Zachary Yack said.<\/p>\n

The North Side got about 2 inches of rain, and the South Side had an inch or less, he said.<\/p>\n

Several North Side neighborhoods reported flooding Tuesday afternoon, weather officials said. For a short time, the sun broke through the clouds, gifting those lucky enough to see it a double rainbow.<\/p>\n
